* My readers are dreaming about me.

* David Lebovitz has a nice recipe for red wine poached rhubarb.

* Michael Ruhlman wants you to make mayo.

* Mark Bittman teaches you to “grill” indoors, using your broiler.

* Tonight’s the big American Idol finale. Craig and I were just chatting about what kind of dishes could be made in honor of the finalists. We decided that David Archuleta was a grilled cheese and that David Cook was a mildly spicy beef chili. What do you think?

    Grilled Cheese for David A…. perfect!

    David Cook is more like a pasty… kind of buttery and doughy on the outside, but you’re not really sure what’s inside.
